The Shard Leads London's Roar for Lionesses Euro Final
25 July 2025
NewsThis Saturday evening, The Shard, the tallest building in the UK, will light up the London skyline in a spectacular display to celebrate the England Women’s football team reaching the UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 final on Sunday.

The Lionesses secured their well-deserved spot in the final with a semi-final performance that showcased their identity of relentless determination, exceptional squad depth, and a remarkable ability to rise to the occasion in critical moments. Their unyielding spirit has captured the hearts of a nation and inspired millions.
To mark the achievement, The Shard’s spire lights will shine bright in support, illuminated in a design inspired by the St. George’s flag on Saturday evening.

The landmark has a proud history of celebrating the nation’s sporting achievements. Last year, it similarly lit up the skyline when the Men’s team reached the Euro 2024 final. It also celebrated the Lionesses’ previous success of the UEFA Women’s European Championship win in 2022 and their journey to the Women’s World Cup final in 2023.
As the Lionesses prepare for what could be another historic moment in English football, The Shard’s glowing tribute stands as a beacon of national pride and unity.
